"Every memorial in its time has a different goal."
-Maya Lin
This was an art filled weekend for the kids. Ashlyn had various projects from coloring stone cupcakes to making moving picture frames that had Rusty, Nala, and Kitty in it.
Rusty has been a big point of discussion lately. Ashlyn still occasionally cries when she goes to sleep at night because she misses him, and this weekend the kids built a memorial of sorts for him in the movie room with notes and pictures. Isla recently said “I miss Rusty, I want him to come back but he’s not coming back”. While we weren’t planning on getting another dog, don’t be surprised if you see pictures of a new addition to the family soon.
With the weather cooling off, we thought it would be fun to take the kids to a park with a friend of ours. They had fun as they always do at the park and it was a good way to burn off some energy before school starts again on Monday.
